It’s no mystery why we here at Envyme.tv decided to spotlight Armand de Brignac Champagne. Rapper Jay-Z recently appeared on the Angie Martinez’ Hot 97 show, where he revealed the Armand de Brignac (Ace of Spades) champagne he endorses was ranked #1 in the world after taste tests. The results were published on September 24 in Fine Champagne magazine, the only international publication devoted to champagne.

Each Champagne was rated on a 100-point scale. The process was so strict that, if judges’ assessments were more than four points apart, the Champagne would be re-tasted and re-assessed.

Armand de Brignac Champagnes have been rated 98/100 points by world‐renowned critic José Peñín, a 4.9 out of 5 score from writer Kåre Halldén, 9/10 points from critic Davor Butkovic. They have also been praised by Italian wine critic Alberto Lupetti, Swedish critic Kåre Halldén, U.S. critics Tim McNally, Arturo Ciompi (5/5 stars), and Gil Lempert‐Schwarz, and The Tasting Panel and Wine & Spirits magazines, among others.

The result is a Armand de Brignac package that is a pleasure to see, to hold, and of course to taste!

Bombardier Aerospace reaffirmed its influence on the large business jet category by introducing two new jets, the Global 7000 and Global 8000 aircraft. These large cabin aircraft will feature GE’s new emission cutting TechX engine.



The Canadian company’s flagship Global aircraft family covers the large, ultra-long-range category with

four aircraft models, the Global 5000, Global Express XRS, Global 7000 and 8000 jets. The Global 7000

will have a 7,300 nm range, while the Global 8000 will be able to fly a globe-girdling 7,900 nm.

“Bombardier’s commitment to innovation, ongoing investment in product development strategy and

strength as the industry leader are key contributors to our overall success,” said Steve Ridolfi, president,

Bombardier Business Aircraft. “By extending this great aircraft family, we are once again offering a business jet travel experience that is unmatched and ahead of its time.”

Bombardier first introduced the Global Express in 1996, starting what is now a family of ultra-long-range aircraft. Bombardier’s new Global 7000 and 8000 will feature an all-new high-speed transonic wing, designed

to significantly optimize aerodynamic efficiency.

The GE TechX engine on the Global 7000 and 8000 will offer improved efficiency, including reduced NOX emissions that are 50 percent below ICAO’s upcoming Civil Aircraft Emissions Protocol (CAEP-6) regulations and 8-percent better fuel efficiency overall when compared to the Global Express XRS.

“The Global 7000 and Global 8000 jets will give our customers the ability to reach more destinations

non-stop than ever before,” said Ridolfi.

Featuring a high-speed cruise of M 0.90, the aircraft are designed to be able to connect to more key

cities non-stop around the world through a combination of range, fuel efficiency and balanced field length.

Global 7000 and 8000 will also feature spacious cabins, including enlarged windows and an innovative

approach to cabin zones, which increases customer’s flexibility and choice when defining their floor plan.

I once wanted to wow the Boston scene and do something different for an Envyme.tv launch event. I needed to do something that really has never been done in this conservative city before. People asked me “Kevin how did you get Lamborghini to show up at your event’?”  I not only got Lamborghini Boston to show up but also a handful of  sponsors like Skyy Vodka and Lamborghini owners to show up with their Lambos!

That night we packed Mantra and i felt like a celebrity. It was a great feeling!

So how did i do it? Well I put on my best suit, drove to the dealership with one of my female models and simply asked them to come. I told them about what i wanted to accomplish and how they would benefit from it, including the demographics and people that i was inviting.

A few years later, same city different game. This time it was for my other company LuxBoston.com. I wanted to do another launch event but with Aston Martin  (my favorite automobile manufacturer) . How did i do it? Again i went up to the dealership this time with my beautiful girlfriend and told them about the event and simply asked them to host it! It was not easy and i had to prove myself but i pulled it off!  It turned out to be a very cool event at Mars Made with food and drinks provided by Rocca!

Mars Made Aston MArtin and LuxBoston.com Event

The  next event for LuxBoston.com will be around April of 2011 at State Room. Lets see who i can get to sponsor this high end event!! Its going to be a challenge but im up for it!

Techart says that they will be showing off their new modified 2010 Porsche 911 Turbo at the 2010 Geneva Motor Show as well as a new Porsche Concept Car.
The first beautiful brute is a new version of the GTStreet R Model. This is based on the 2010 911 Turbo, the GTStreet R is about serious performance. The 3.8-liter twin-turbo flat-six produces 660 horsepower and 635 pound-feet of torque, and Techart claims a 0-100 km/h time of 3.5 seconds as well as a top speed of 214 mph. Providing the looks to go with the power is an aggressive aerodynamic kit that includes an adjustable rear spoiler and carbon fiber rear diffuser and front splitter.

The next vehicle is the concept with a design based on the Porsche Panamera. With 550 HP and a twin Turbo V8, Im liking the concept already (wait till you see the images) and it sounds like it will kick ass. The exterior features a full body kit as well as 22-inch forged wheels. The inside is upholstered in a striking white and cocoa leather complimented by phosphor green stitching. Techart calls it “unusual personalization.”

The hybrid version of the 599 GTB is expected to be revealed during the 2010 Geneva International Auto Show in March. Rumor has it that the hybrid 599 will use a modified version of the Kinetic Energy Retrieval System that was employed in Formula 1 racing in 2009 but discontinued in 2010. If that’s the case, an electric motor will be added to the car’s drivetrain that will act as a generator during braking to recover some energy, which would then be stored in a battery and used to boost performance on demand.

Overall a reduction of about 35% in fuel consumption (equivalent to about 17 litres per 100km) will be achieved.

Ferrari 599 Hybrid

Ferrari has officially unveiled the exclusive P540 Superfast Aperta in Palm Beach Florida at the Cavallino Classic. Created by the company’s Special Projects division, for American Edward Walson (the son of the man who invented cable television), the Aperta was inspired by the Carrozzeria Fantuzzi-designed Ferrari which appeared in the movie Toby Dammit.

According to Ferrari, “The P540 was designed by Pininfarina and built in Maranello, and the client was directly involved in each stage of its development. As the 599 GTB Fiorano donor car is a coupé, considerable effort went into strengthening the chassis by using finite element analysis in development and the increase in weight was kept down to just 20 kg (44 lbs) by employing carbon-fiber extensively. From the initial sketches to the final, road-legal car took just 14 months.”

Like the standard 599 GTB, the Aperta is powered by a 6.0-liter V12 engine with 456 kW (620 hp) and 608 Nm of torque. While performance specifications weren’t released, Ferrari says the car has a combined fuel economy rating of 17.9L/100 km and a CO2 emissions rating of 415 g/km.

How “Sweet” is that?? Diddy purchased a $360000 Maybach for his son Justin Dior Combs, 16th Birthday!! The entire event was filmed by no other than MTV’s  reality show “My Super Sweet Sixteen”. Performances by rappers Fabolous, Lil’ Kim, and Jim Jones.

Of course the car comes with a driver, i think thats too much car for a 16 year old to handle!

Wrapped in a red ribbon, the Maybach  was presented to Justin at the end of the night. Diddy also gave his son a $10,000 check, which he promptly pledged to Wyclef Jean’s charity Yele Haiti.

March 18 is the set date for Italian Fashion designer Giorgio Armani to open his fashion labels first hotel in the tallest building in the world at the Burj Khalifa. The Burj Khalifa is formerly known as the Burj Dubai.

The former of which employs a silver metallic finish and alloys nicked from the Grand Sport and the latter incorporates “country coded” colors that include a silver metallic lower and an impossibly deep upper blue finish and a Havanna interior with quilted seats.

PRESS RELEASE:

Bugatti honours the importance of the Middle East market
with 2 unique cars and a special series of only 5 Veyrons for the Middle East market

Dubai, 15th December 2009 – Bugatti Automobiles S.A.S. finishes its Centenary celebrations
with three tailor made cars, especially developed for its discerning clientele in the Middle East:
the Veyron “Sang d’Argent”, the Grand Sport “Soleil de Nuit” and the Veyron “Nocturne”,
limited to five cars only.

The “Nocturne” – a special Veyron five car edition exclusively for the Middle East Market

The Veyron “Nocturne” strikes with an extraordinary partition of surfaces never used so far,
giving the car a new dimension of lateral length. Bugatti is experimenting with galvanized side
windows continuing the line of the polished aluminium upper body parts to the rear of the car
and contrast vividly with the uni black of the side- and door-panels and the roof. Added to that is
the hood, also covered in polished aluminium which emphasizes this impression of elegant
length. Special polished custom rims at the exterior and a futuristic interior dominated by a black
nanocoated magnesium dashboard and a centre console in galvanized Platinum complete this
unique combination of individualized modern design.

This mini series has been especially developed for the Middle East Market honouring its
importance and its strong partners in the area – Al Habtoor Motors, UAE, Al Zayani Trading
Co., Kuwait, Al Ghassan Motors, Saudi Arabia and Dana Motors, Quatar.

“Sang d’Argent” and “Soleil de Nuit” – two dreams for 1001 nights

The two-tone-scheme of the Centenary Villa d’Este cars were at the origin of the “Sang
d’Argent”, a one-off Veyron version built exclusively for the Middle East. But the country coded
coloured parts of the car have now been changed to a subtle silver metallic which discreetly flows
into the lines of the polished aluminium parts – doors and front wings – thus enhancing the
“silver theme” of this car; yet another unique Bugatti creation celebrating the 100th anniversary
of the brand. The “Sang d’Argent” has the Grand Sport rims, they complete together with the air
intakes on the roof the overall silver appearance.

Through the windows shines a differentiating Havanna interior with quilting pattern on seats
and saddle and other very personalized items emphasizing the unique features of this very special
Bugatti.

The “Soleil de Nuit” – Sun of the Night – is another stunning example of how a modern
interpretation of Bugatti’s core values “Art, Forme, Technique”: A very unusual colour/material
split characterizes the “Soleil de Nuit”, the second Middle East one-off model created for the
Dubai Motor Show. The horizontal split in the lower part of the car – a synthesis of polished
Aluminium, painted Black Blue Metallic enriched by mirror shine meshes – softens the lines of
this Grand Sport and gives the body a new touch of sportiness. Blue Metallic in the upper body
parts and also in the inner side of the (“Sang Noir”) rims, the outer side of which are in diamond
cut, underline the exquisite appearance of this dramatic looking car. A strong burnt orange
interior crowns the attractiveness of this impressive “Soleil de Nuit”.

The cars will be available for delivery in the first quarter of 2010. Their prices range from 1.65
Mio Euro for the five car series of the “Nocturne” to 1.45 Mio Euro for the “Sang d’Argent” and
1.55 Mio for the “Soleil de Nuit”, the Veyron and Grand Sport one-off models.

All these models are a visible proof of how creativeness and inspiration can be successfully driven
to new limits. Bugatti’s constant strive for new technology, more power with less weight, more
innovative design aiming for improved speed, easier handling and more inspiring elegance has
become legendary. Bugatti’s sophisticated individualization and personalization program has
opened new opportunities for the creative and discerning customers found in the Middle East.
New materials have widened the range of personalized options and have led to combinations and
applications of different varieties of high tech elements never seen before. Thus Bugatti chose
the Dubai Motor Show to present these new combinations the first and only time to a broader
public.

100 years later the Bugatti brand is well established again

Honouring the foundation of the company in 1909 Bugatti Automobiles S.A.S opened the
anniversary with a one-off version of the Veyron, the “Bleu Centenaire”, at the Geneva Motor
Show in March. At the Villa d’Este weekend at the end of April the company paid tribute to
Bugatti’s racing history – which was to a great extend responsible for the worldwide reputation
of the brand – with four very special Grand Sports, accompanied by their respective Type 35
predecessors, all featuring the traditional racing colours representing France, Italy, England and
Germany, namely blue, red, green and white. Bugatti was then one of the honoured marques at
the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance in California in August and highlighted the event with
the presentation of the “Sang Bleu”, a one off Grand Sport in a breathtaking and unique carbon
– aluminium combination. The “100th Anniversary Weekend” in Molsheim in September was
the platform for a glimpse into the future which might look like the Bugatti 16 C Galibier
concept – intended to be the most exclusive, elegant and powerful four door automobile in the
world.

The presentation of these very special cars at the Dubai Motor Show is the final highlight, with
which Bugatti ends its Centenary celebrations. We are honoured to complete our 100 Years at
this prestigious Motor Show of a very important market for Bugatti.
